I'll put in scores but can't guarantee much XP/LP. This week's DLC is unmitigated shite btw.

We're going up at a canter as it turns out. Currently 14th for spotlight, 6th for LP(and not going much higher either, 1st has 1,164,500 and we have 573,700 :lol: ) and 20th for XP, 7th overall for the week. We could actually possibly push for a wee medal placement if we can pump up a bit more XP and spotlight score!

We really are only a competitive, DLC-downloading drummer away from being a top tier outfit. 30th for spotlight without having registered four scores, 5th for LP and 11th for XP. 7th overall for the week.

Pretty good DLC this week! I'll grab both. This week will probably be too much of a grind to be promoted though... so week off? If we aren't attempting bloodstone league then there's only one promotion left to get this season.

I say, if you’re getting the DLC, then you could give whatever Spotlights there are a go because one of them will be said DLC. Then who knows what’ll happen?

I’m playing this mummy strawberry floater this week, but I can’t lay a glove on the Lamb of God spotlight tune, good heavens above. Tried my best in the other 4 parts.

We can get promotion this week but it'll take a good wedge of XP. The general way to do this, and I get this is arrogant and I'm sorry, but if you can smash out a load of first plays on songs Buff I can swoop in and get a 100%, 1.5x bonus on them and be thrashing out the best part of 1000XP per song. We'll be fine for LP and XP that way, and then probably just need to fill in half decent scores on the spotlights to go up.

Then we'd have three shots at Bloodstone...

How many do you think I’ll have to do? There’s a lot in my library to choose from, which is a good start. I can rattle through as much as I can tomorrow.

Just batter through anything you see I haven’t played. Short songs are good cause we can rack up 800-1000XP for every one. If we follow the same thing next week I think we might be able to shoot at Bloodstone, but it’ll be a real punt…

We need to go up ten overall places to be in the promotion zone. We've rocketed up the LP leagues and still have a lot of space for improvement in the XP as well. I'd love to see us get maybe 100,000 more points on the spotlights though as it would probably push us up into the promotion places by itself as it is.

We are, by a strawberry floating sliver, in the promotion zone at the moment. We can keep this going. Godspeed lads.

EDIT: I didn't realise the badges for individual XP and LP were still going - managed 2nd for XP in the gold league and 3rd for spotlight by the look of it. :slol:

I don’t know what the songs this week are because the apps still not working for me but I’ll play the spotlights I have tomorrow. I should have at least two of them and I’ll dig the drums out for them if they need some kind of score on that part

Laid to Rest by Lamb of God
All My Favourite Songs by Weezer
Sink by Animal Flag (Rivals song)

We're ranked 69th at the moment, and need to keep it roughly above 80th place. I don't know if I'll get back on again but will do my best!

EDIT: Dropped from 68th to 76th overnight, if that's the drop we can expect each night then I can probably jump on for an hour today and tomorrow to get us back to the place we were in before. Hopefully we'll be OK!
